The Eawy Forest is one of the largest and oldest forests in the region. It covers approximately 7,000 hectares and is part of the vast Normandy forest massif. This forest is best known for its majestic beech groves, sometimes centuries-old beech trees that dominate the landscape. It is home to a wide variety of fauna and flora, offering an environment conducive to walks, hikes and discoveries.

The Limousins alley is the work of Gabriel de Limoges. The latter crosses the Eawy forest for 14 km from Maucomble to Muchedent. According to the archives of the National Forestry Office, it took its name from the Sapeurs de l’Empire, originally from Limousin. They are said to have cut through the alley around 1811 on the occasion of the planting of the Jardin du Roi de Rome in Ventes-Saint-Rémy in honour of the son of Napoleon I.

The Muchedent church is a living testimony to the history of the Normandy region. Its architecture, mixing Romanesque and Gothic styles, makes it a unique and precious monument. Whether for its architectural beauty, its exceptional stained glass windows or its spiritual atmosphere, the Muchedent church is a must for all history and heritage lovers. In addition, you can enjoy a pleasant picnic area and a pétanque court!

This small segment, friendly and pleasant underfoot, overlooks the Varenne to offer some charming views.

The Varenne is a Norman river, 39 kilometers long, a tributary of the Arques. It is the westernmost watercourse of the dendritic hydrographic network formed by the Béthune and the Eaulne which confluence near Arques-la-Bataille to form the Arques, a short coastal river joining the English Channel at Dieppe.

A pretty little country road nestled between two wooded plateaus. Very pleasant in spring with the rapeseed fields.

This small path belongs to the Allée des Limousins. Here, you progress on a steep drop (D+ 63m). Better to go down this steep path than to climb it!

This short path in the woods is very pleasant, it is an extension of the Allée des Limousins which crosses the Eawy forest for 14 km from Maucomble to Muchedent.
